[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do so many women keep their names but give the husband's name to the kids? [/quote] I was thinking the same. Why are we so woke that we don't take our husbands last name, but automatically give it to our children. How does that make sense? Fwiw I did change my last name, immediately. But I had various reasons and I don't care what others do. I think the whole system is odd.[/quote] It’s not “woke” to keep your last name, it’s just easier. For some women it’s a feminism thing and those are usually also the women who hyphenate kids’ last names. For me and a lot of women I know it was just simpler not to change but still use your husbands name socially. [/quote]
